Final Flashcards
Parkinson Disease
Neurodegenerative disorder which targets dopamine-generating cells in a region of the brain known as the substantia nigra
- Men are 1.5 times more likely to have Parkinson (estrogen)
- Classification
- Idiopathic
- Vascular
Spinal cord injury
Damage to any part of the spinal cord or nerve at the end of the spinal cord
-
Spacticity
resistance to a passive stretch
“velocity dependent exaggerated stretch reflex”
- Must work slow for those with spasticity
Rigidity
Involuntary bidirectional non-velocity dependent resistance to movement
clonus
a series of involuntary muscular contractions due to sudden stretch of muscle (MS,Stroke, SCI)
( agonist triggered)
Dystonia
Involuntary sustained contractions resulting in twisting posture
chorea
small, involuntary, rapid, irregular, unsustainable movements
Ballisms
Involuntary flinging movements of one side of limbs or body; BIG
Tremor
Involuntary rhythmic repetitive oscillations (PD)
Dyskinesia
a movement disorder consists of diminished voluntary movements and the presence
Hypokinesia
decreased bodily movement associated with basal ganglia
slow processing of movement and response time
Akinesia
absence of movement; difficult selecting motor programs
Bradykinesia
slowness of movement;
CV endurance=CR endurance
Te capacity of the cardiorespitory system to deliver O2
Cardiac out put
stroke volume x Heart Rate (vol/min)
- The amount of blood pumped by the heat
Maximal Oxygen Uptake
The max amount of O2 that can be utilized at cell level
True resting heart beat
3 morning pulses
Resting HR
60-100
pulse sites
radial/carotid/temporal
Cerebral Paulsy
Developmental motor deficit caused by brain malformation
Prenatal- alcohol
Postnatal- traumatic brain injury
perinatal- oxygen deficient
Types Of CP
- Spactic (90%)
- non spactic
- athetoid: fluctuating muscle tone/low muscle tone
- atoxic: poor coordination and balance
- topagraphichemiplegical
Exercise for CP
slow movements, aquatic
MS
deterioration of myelin sheath
auto immune disorder
Types of MS
- benign
- primary progressive
- secondary progressive: on and off then progressive
- relapsing remeding
Determinants of CV Exercise
-Intensity ◦ Overload principle ◦ Conditioning response usually at 70-85% of max - Duration - frequency -Mode
ALS
aggressive progressive disease
more common in men
- not autoimmune disorder
CMT
Constraint induced Muscle Therapy
Traummatic Brain injury
Open- skull fracture
closed - brain bruise
Definition of balance
ability to maintain COM aover BOS
static balance
stable BOS
Dynamic balance
BOS in motion
Balance systems
- Proprioceptive ( somatosensory)
- Oculomotor
- Vestibular
BOS
Base of support: wide, narrow, tandum stance
COM
Center of Mass: swiss ball, trampoline
LOS
limit of stability: how far you shift with no loss of balance
Biodex
computerized post game training
results of CV exercise
hypertrophy occurs due to increased number of capillary to the muscle
Hematoma in traumatic brain injury
bleeding from brain
- epidural
- subdural
coping symptoms for spinal cord injury
denial, anger, negotiate, depression
posture
the relative arrangement of body parts for a specific activity
rear foot varus
inversion
rear foot valgus
eversion
gait
stance 60%
swing 40%
One full stride
Ambutation
removal of a body extremity byt trauma, prolonged construction, osurgery
Arthritis
A large group of musculoskelatal conditions consistins of over 100 different disorders. damages jointd tissue around joints.
- more common in women
classification of Arthritis
osteoarthritis
rheumatoid
Multiple Sclerosis
scars, plaque sand lesions particularly in the brain and the spinal cord
classification of als
sporatic most common
familial
guamianian
